Sevilla have strong shout of stopping Klopp and Liverpool in Europa League final

A real threat to the Premier League side comes in the form of Sevilla striker Kevin Gameiro, who has scored seven in eight Europa outings this term. Odds of 13/8 say forward Gameiro, who is on standby for Euro 2016 hosts France this summer, will net again anytime.

There’s a special enhanced 5/1 wincast involving Gameiro grabbing a goal in 90 minutes and Sevilla winning in normal time, which is crying out to be taken advantage of.

If Bathtubs boss Unai Emery is bold enough to pair Gameiro with a partner up top, then that will be Basque Country-born target man Fernando Llorente. He offers a very different kind of threat to the diminutive Gameiro, and Llorente is a nifty 9/4 to chip in with a goal in 90 minutes.

Lallana the unlikely leading candidate for Liverpool

Here’s a stat that will shock punters and the red half of Merseyside; England midfielder Adam Lallana is Reds top scorer in the Europa League with three. Featuring in all but two of Liverpool’s 14 outings in this competition, he has certainly had plenty of chances.

A goal in a big game like this final would go some distance to silence Lallana’s critics, and he is an 11/4 anytime chance. Klopp has some tactical choices to make ahead of this match, such as who to select up front.

If Daniel Sturridge gets the nod, then the alternative 4/1 wincast for a goal from him and a Reds victory in 90 minutes is certainly worthy of merit. Shorter at 6/4 anytime, there is more to like about false nine option Roberto Firmino in that market at 7/4.

Team news

This Europa League final may come too soon for Divock Origi, but Liverpool captain Jordan Henderson could be involved, and is 5/1 to lead by example with a goal here.

Sevilla are definitely without winger Michael Krohn-Dehli and defensive duo Benoit Tremoulinas and Marco Andreolli, while club captain Jose Antonio Reyes has a chance of making it and the ex-Arsenal man is 7/2 to net anytime.

Punters seeking more novelty bets may wish to plump for a repeat of the 2005 Champions League final, when the Reds came from three goals down against AC Milan to draw 3-3. A repeat scoreline in 90 minutes against Sevilla is a 66/1 shot here.
